Your Protagonist

  On Monday we had a presentation about people who are on the margins of society and struggling to get by. We were told that they faced two major problems. 1. Meeting basic needs; shelter, food, clothing. 2. Having a Broken Heart. As our speaker said, everybody has 'heart' damage, but hopefully we have enough safety nets to keep us safe when heartbreak happens. Major heartbreak has been caused by residential schools, which has contributed to the homeless problem in Winnipeg, which the speaker went into in some detail. 

Question to answer about your protagonist. What challenges, if any, does your protagonist face in meeting 1. Basic Needs  2. Having a Broken Heart
